Learning how to use scss styles in html pages.

Using scss in Html Page

When we use Sass, we prefer Scss syntax. For Css, we convert Scss to Css with Sass. We prefer to install npm instead of brew or choco to have a simple single run file. We use npx sass for convenience.

Using Variables

We use variables so that applying theme and reading code becomes more convenient. See variable.scss for an example usage.

Using Modules

We use modules to keep the styles of parts that make sense on their own (these can be components, classes, etc.) in a unique file. We combine .scss files into a single file with @import. We convert the file to css and use it. See style.scss for combine example usage.

Nesting

We use it because it helps us to see and manage hierarchy. See nested.scss for an example usage.

Using Ampersand

You can use & where appropriate. See nested-ampersand.scss

Using Operators

We use operators to calculate a new value based on a property. For example, we calculate the new value by increasing/decreasing the height of the element we give style. See style.scss for an example usage.

Watch

When we use --watch, we instantly reflect the change we made in style.scss file. There is no need to generate css again for each change. See sass/pacakage.json for our implementation.

We used concurrently module for server and watch to work in parallel.
